plustek: Thread: Epson Perfection 1260 & TPA

Hi everyone!

I've got an new Epson Perfection 1260 with TPA. Yesterday I installed the 
actual stable version of sane (1.0.8) and xsane (0.88) on my SuSE 8.0 (I 
removed all SuSE-sane and -xsane-stuff).
I added the plustek-sane-0.44-3 stuff and compiled sane and xsane. I can 
perfectly (it's a perfection scanner ;-) scan images, but i can't use the tpa 
for negatives. xsane just doesn't show the menu for selection other sources.

My question is now - I read the archives - if the plustek-driver for usb now 
supports the tpa or not.

I would be pleased for every response - thank's!

If there is need for testing new code for the perfection 1260 with tpa I would 
be pleased to do the testing.

enable the option enableTPA by setting the value to 1 in the plustek.conf
File, this should fix the problem...
You also have to adjust the origins there for negOffX/Y and tpaOffX/Y to
the following values:
negOffX -92
negOffY -325

tpaOffX +45
tpaOffY 0

This fixes the offset problems. The calibration is still broken, as this
offset does not match...
